IN special fuel — permissive supplier.
Flat 3%. Enter your amount.
A permissive supplier is an out-of-state supplier who elects to collect Indiana special fuel tax on fuel destined for the state — and the Department of Revenue can require a bond under IC 6-6-2.5-44. The commissioner sets the amount; we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.

What the special fuel bond actually covers
Indiana taxes diesel and other special fuels under IC 6-6-2.5. A permissive supplier is an out-of-state position holder or supplier who is not required to register but elects to collect Indiana special fuel tax on fuel removed from a terminal destined for Indiana — a voluntary role that simplifies the tax chain for everyone downstream.
Even a voluntary collector handles state tax money, so under IC 6-6-2.5-44 the commissioner can require a bond no less than $2,000 and no more than the estimated two-month tax liability, conditioned on accurate records, reports, and payments.
The bond stands behind the special fuel tax you collect and owe: if you fail to remit, the state can recover against it, and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the DOR set, at a flat 3% with no credit check.
